Thanks

I am havingtrouble getting returns to efiled. They have correct AGI from previous year. I think the trouble is with my software company.

[BP.]

Can you use the practitioner pin method instead? Good luck

[Chief]

Thanks, BP

You hit the nail on the head. I was using the Practioner Pin but had not checked that in mysoftware. You got me on the right track. Will know for sure after 4 PM.
